Summary
This study tests a program called Tunawiri (meaning 'thrive') that adds mental health screening, counseling, and support to regular HIV care for pregnant and postpartum women in Kenya. The goal is to improve depression, anxiety, and HIV treatment success. Nine hundred women will take part, and researchers will track their mental health and HIV outcomes for a year after giving birth.
